Configuring the Cisco WebEx Node for the ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers

This chapter provides information about configuring the Cisco WebEx Node for ASR 1000 Series on the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers, also referred to in this document as the Cisco WebEx Node SPA.

Prerequisites

Complete the following prerequisites to successfully activate your Cisco WebEx Node for ASR 1000 Series:

Registering with the WebEx Data Center and the Cisco WebEx Node Management System

To successfully activate a Cisco WebEx Node for ASR 1000 Series, certain registration and provisioning activities must be performed with the WebEx Data Center using the Cisco WebEx Node Management System. The Cisco WebEx Node Management System also provides monitoring and reporting for Cisco WebEx nodes.

Once the SPA is registered with the WebEx Data Center, certain node security information must be gathered and then configured on the Cisco WebEx Node for ASR 1000 Series.


Note
Registering your Cisco WebEx Node SPA and establishing an account in the Cisco WebEx Node Management System are two separate activities. If you are responsible for the management of Cisco WebEx Node SPAs for your enterprise, then it is likely that you will also acquire an account in the Cisco WebEx Node Management System application. Otherwise, you will work with your enterprise WebEx administrator to exchange the appropriate information to properly provision your Cisco WebEx Node SPA with the WebEx Data Center and configure it locally at the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router.

Note

For details about working with the Cisco WebEx Node Management System, see the Cisco WebEx Node Management System Administrator’s Guide.

Obtaining an Account in the Cisco WebEx Node Management System

If you will be monitoring and maintaining Cisco WebEx Node SPAs for your enterprise, then you will need to obtain an account in the Cisco WebEx Node Management System.

Consider the following important information about Cisco WebEx Node Management System accounts:

  • You must change your password within 90 days. If you do not change your password, your account will move to “Inactive” status.

  • wma-url—The URL string from the Cisco WebEx Node Management System must be configured on the Cisco WebEx Node SPA using the service-engine wma-url command.
Note 
This security information must be configured on the Cisco WebEx Node for ASR 1000 Series SPA using the CLI. For more information about configuring the CLI, see the Configuring the Virtual Service Engine Interface.

Completing the Cisco WebEx Node SPA Configuration Prerequisites

Prior to configuring the Cisco WebEx Node SPA, you must ensure that the following tasks are completed:

For more information about Cisco IOS XE package compatibility and installation instructions, see the Consolidated Packages and Sub-Package Management chapter of the http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/routers/asr1000/configuration/guide/chassis/asrswcfg.html Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers Software Configuration Guide .

  • After the router is configured to run using individual subpackages, download and install the webex sipspawmak9 subpackage. Use the request platform software package install rp rp-slot-number file storage-device:sipspa-package-name command in the privileged EXEC mode or the diagnostic mode to upgrade the SIPSPA subpackage. For example: 

router# request platform software package install rp
 
0
 file
 
bootflash:asr1000rp1-sipspawmak9.2011-11-23_09.34_cmaddine.pkg
.
  • A DNS entry for the IP address is assigned to each Cisco WebEx Node SPA.
  • An IP address is allocated for the Cisco IOS XE interface configuration on the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Router side.
  • An IP address is also allocated for the internal interface configuration on the Cisco WebEx Node SPA side.
  • The IP address that is allocated for the Cisco IOS XE interface configuration on the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router side and the IP address that is allocated for the internal interface configuration on the Cisco WebEx Node SPA side must be on the same subnet.
  • Verify that certain WebEx Data Center servers (such as the Cisco WebEx Data Center SSL gateway and the Cisco WebEx Node Management server) are reachable and not blocked from access by the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router. If access to these servers is blocked, then the Cisco WebEx Node SPA might not activate properly.

Configuration Tasks

This section describes how to configure the Cisco WebEx Node for ASR 1000 Series and verify the configuration. For information about managing your system images and configuration files, refer to the following:

Specifying the Service Engine Interface Address on the Cisco WebEx Node SPA

To configure or monitor SPA interfaces, you need to specify the physical location of the SIP, SPA, and interface in the CLI. The interface address format is slot/ subslot/ port , where:

  • slot—Specifies the chassis slot number in the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router where the SIP is installed.

  • subslot—Specifies the secondary slot of the SIP where the SPA is installed.

  • port—Specifies the number of the individual interface port on a SPA.

The following example shows how to specify the service engine interface on a Cisco WebEx Node SPA installed in the first subslot of a SIP (0) installed in chassis slot 2: 


Router(config)# interface service-engine 2/0/0

For more information about identifying slots and subslots, see the “Identifying Slots and Subslots for the SIPs and SPAs” section in the Configuring the SIP chapter.

Configuring the Virtual Service Engine Interface

Configuration of the Cisco WebEx Node SPA begins with the setup of a virtual service engine interface. This Cisco IOS XE virtual interface is created to allow services running on the Cisco WebEx Node SPA to communicate through the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router with the Internet. The interface simulates a 2.5-GB Ethernet interface and facilitates the connection between the Cisco WebEx Data Center and Cisco WebEx clients.

A service-engine interface on the Cisco WebEx Node SPA has two IP addresses:

  • Router-side IP address—Configured with the ip address command. The IP address on the router side acts like a gateway to the WebEx services running on the SPA side.
  • Internal SPA interface IP address—Configured with the service-engine ip address command.

Virtual Service-Engine Interface Configuration Guidelines

To successfully configure the virtual service-engine interface, complete the following guidelines:

  • The Network Address Translation (NAT) must be configured to convert the private address of the service engine to the public address.
  • The router-side IP address must be configured using the ip address command.
  • The service-engine IP address must be on the same subnet as the router-side IP address for the service-engine interface (configured using the ip address command.)
  • The service-engine ip address command must be configured before you configure the service-engine default-gateway command.
  • The service-engine default-gateway IP address must match the router-side IP address.

Note
Before you can configure the Cisco WebEx Node SPA, you must shut down the service-engine interface using the shutdown interface configuration command. To activate the service-engine interface, use the no shutdown command.

SUMMARY STEPS

  1. Router(config)# ip nat inside source static private-ip-address public-ip- address
  2. Router(config)# interface service- engine slot/subslot /0
  3. Router(config-if)# ip address router-side-ip-address
  4. Router(config-if)# service-engine ip address module-side-ip-address subnet-mask
  5. Router(config-if)# service-engine default-gateway gateway-ip-address

Note
Because the passcode is encrypted, the output will not reveal the configured token or passcode.

Saving the Configuration

To save your running configuration to nonvolatile random-access memory (NVRAM), use the following command in privileged EXEC configuration mode:

Command

Purpose

Router# copy running-config startup-config

Writes the new configuration to NVRAM.

For more information about managing your system image and configuration files, refer to the Cisco IOS XE Configuration Fundamentals Configuration Guide and Cisco IOS Configuration Fundamentals Command Reference publications that correspond to your Cisco IOS XE software release.

Shutting Down and Removing the Cisco WebEx Node SPA

Because the Cisco WebEx Node SPA has a hard disk drive (HDD), it is necessary to shut down gracefully before physically removing the SPA from the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router. This action allows the operating system to unmount the file system and put the HDD in standby mode to prevent data corruption or physical damage to the HDD.

The Cisco WebEx Node SPA can be shut down in one of two ways:

  • You can use the hw-module subslot stop command to gracefully shut down the SPA before physically removing the hardware from the chassis. To shut down the Cisco WebEx Node SPA, use the following command in EXEC mode:

Command

Purpose

Router# hw-module subslot slot / subslot stop

Shuts down the Cisco WebEx Node SPA located in the slot and subslot locations indicated.

  • You can use the Shutdown button located on the left side of the faceplate. Use the tip of a pen or other similar blunt object to press the button.

Once the shutdown operation is initiated by either method, the SYS LED starts to blink (green) to indicate the shutdown operation is in progress. Once the shutdown operation is completed, the SYS LED turns off to show that the SPA can now be removed.


Caution

Make sure to wait until the SYS LED turns off before removing the SPA.

The following example shows the use of the hw-module subslot stop command: 


Router# hw-module subslot 0/0 stop
ASR1004#
*Feb 18 12:37:32.260:%SPA_OIR-6-OFFLINECARD: SPA (SPA-WMA-K9) offline in subslot 0/0

     0 lost carrier, 0 no carrier
     0 output buffer failures, 0 output buffers swapped out

Showing Service Engine Status

To show service engine status including a listing of the applications that are active, use the show hw-module subslot service-engine status command as shown in the following example: 


Router# show hw-module subslot 1/0 service-engine status
Service Engine is Cisco SPA-WMA-K9
Service Engine state: Steady (0x300)
Service Engine OS Version: 1.0.0, Application Version: 1.0.0
 
Application: WebEx Node (Web Conferencing)
Application Status: Online
Configuration:
  Int ip address: 10.200.72.18 ,  mask: 255.255.255.252
  GW ip address: 10.200.72.17
  Nameserver 1: 10.100.4.10 ,  Nameserver 2: 10.100.4.20
  Hostname: spawma1, Domain name: cisco.com
  WMA URL - https://wmabts.webex.com/wmams
  WMA Token - 45484b3e-8ea5-41e5-b050-49409006d14e
  WMA Passcode Name - cisco_test, key:0552055C271A4B5C4D5D424A5B5E007F

Note
Since the passcode and token are encrypted, the actual content is not displayed.

Verify that the service engine is reported in “Steady” state, and the Application Status is “Online.” If the Application Status is “Online,” then verify that the indicated operation mode (“Web Conferencing” or “Voice and Video Conferencing”) is correct. If not, contact Cisco WebEx Technical Support to correct the problem.

If the Application Status field is “Offline” then the operation mode (indicated in parenthesis in "Application" field) will show that it is not configured, as shown in the following sample output: 


Router# show hw-module subslot 1/0 service-engine status
Service Engine is Cisco SPA-WMA-K9
Service Engine state: Steady (0x300)
Service Engine OS Version: 1.0.0, Application Version: 1.0.0
 
Application: WebEx Node (operation mode not configured) 
Application Status: Offline

This occurs when the connection to the Cisco WebEx Data Center fails, and therefore provisioning information about the operation mode can not be retrieved. For more information about provisioning, see the Registering with the WebEx Data Center and the Cisco WebEx Node Management System. For additional troubleshooting information, refer to the Troubleshooting the Cisco WebEx Node for the ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers chapter.

Configuring the WebEx Node

The security patch for the WebEx Node has been integrated into Cisco IOS XE Release 3.8.2 and Cisco IOS XE Release 3.9.1S. To install the security patch, the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers and the WebEx SPA modules need to be upgraded to either Cisco IOS XE Release 3.8.2 or Cisco IOS XE Release 3.9.1S.

You can only install the WebEx Node subpackage when the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Router is rebooted in the subpackage mode.

If the router is already booted up in the subpackage mode with the required release (3.08.02 or 3.09.01), copy the optional subpackage (sipspawma) pertaining to the same release in the same directory in which the subpackages are stored, and then install the same optional subpackage (sipspawma). In this case, no router reload is necessary.

If the router is started with a consolidated image of any release, or is started in the subpackage mode with a release that is different from the required release, copy the required consolidated image (3.08.02 or 3.09.01) in an appropriate media, create and install the subpackages from the consolidated image to bootflash, copy the optional subpackage (sipspawma) in the same directory in bootflash, and reload the system in the subpackage mode. After the router is up and running, install the optional subpackage (sipspawma).

For more information, see the “C onsolidated Packages and Sub-Package Management” and “Software Upgrade Process” chapters in the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers Software Configuration Guide.

Enter the individual SPA interfaces, and re-enter the wma-passcodes:

Example:

interface service-Engine 0/0/0
ip address <ip addr> <subnet mask>
shutdown
service-engine ip address <ip addr> <subnet mask>
service-engine default-gateway <ip addr>
service-engine wma-passcode <wma-token>
service-engine nameserver <primary DNS nameserver> <secondary DNS nameserver>
service-engine hostname <spa name> <domainname>
service-engine wma-url <webex url for wma spa config>
no shutdown
show hw-module subslot <subslot> service-engine status

Repeat Step 19 for all the interfaces.

Step 21

Write configuration to memory:

Example:

write memory
Step 22

Verify that the running configuration is pointing to the correct node determined in Step 8:

Example:

show running-configuration
Step 23

Make sure that you are on the same network as the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Router or VPN, and start a WebEx meeting.

Step 24

Verify that network traffic is traversing the WebEx SPA card on the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Router by running the following commands:

Example:

show platform hardware qfp act interface if-name service-engine0/0/0 statistics
show platform hardware qfp act interface if name service-engine0/1/0 statistics
Step 25

Access the SIP console by using the request platform software console attach slot/subslot command.
